Friendliness is both a courtesy and a tradition here at SC. Our entire university life takes on added meaning when we add the spirit of harmony and good feeling, of unity and cooperation to our activities. The friendly campus contributes much to the individual student.
Recognizing the value of promoting the spirit of friendliness on this campus, Blue Key has sponsored each year a week during which this spirit has been stressed. I consider it a real privilege to proclaim the week of Mar. 19-23, as Hello and Smile week and urge the whole-hearted cooperation and participation of the entire student body.
Yours very sincerely, LEE SCOTT,
ASSC President.
FATHER WM. A. MAGUIRE . . . Newman speaker.
Priest to stress religion in war
The outlook of religion on postwar planning and similar ideas wTill be topic of Father William A. Maguire, the person who inspired the writing of the song “Praise the Lord and Pass the Ammunition,” when he speaks at a. meeting sponsored by the Newman club in Bowne hall today at 3:30 p.m.
All students and the public are invited to hear Father Maguire as he also discusses the effects of a religious background on fighting men at the battlefronts. He will aim part of his speech at servicemen training on this campus by showing the need that men and women in the armed forces have for religion in everyday life.
“Father Maguire will give an interesting man-to-man talk and is a direct and forceful speaker,” declared the Rev. Father Donald Fallon, Newman club chaplain director and assistant pastor of St. Vincent’s church. “Persons of all faiths should hear him.”
A navy chaplain for 28 years, Father Maguire is now head chaplain of the 11th naval district, which takes in three states. He is the author of two books. “The Captain Wears a Cross,” and “Rig for Church,” an autobiography.
Father Maguire obtained his education at Seton hall, N. H.; Catholic university, Washington, D. C., and Louvain university, Brussels.
Charles Nick. Newman club president, will preside over the meeting with Father Fallon.
Dutch spies establish unity, says Van Berkel
How little democratic Holland was welded into a strong, united force to combat German domination during the past four years was disclosed by Jacob Van Berkel, 26-year-old member of the Dutch underground, when he spoke at a student body assembly in Bovard auditorium last Friday. “German oppression made ‘ama-
teur gangsters’ of peaceful Dutch citizens as they became determined ‘just not to stand’ for the harsh .treatment dealt out by the Nazis,” declared the young Dutchman, who was liberated from the Netherlands last October.
At one time a peace-loving student in Rotterdam, Van Berkel was stunned by the wanton destruction of that city by Nazi airmen after the armistice, and soon became a member of the underground.

The Carnival for Fun coming on
Speedy steamer meets-rivalry from velocipede
SC’s many streamlined Buick, Cadillac, Packard, and other various types of club coupes equipped with the latest novelties have now met their competitor in the 1906 model Norrell Steamer which chugged around campus Friday noon. This antiquated automobile is owned by Spor Bradford and has a capacity of at least 15 people.
Racing at the amazing speed of 15 miles per hour, twin horns blasting at unwary pedestrians, and driven by Bradford himself, the derelict was quite a spectacle as it acquired more and more passengers. Then, without any previous notice, the battle-wagon came upon one of the later model (about 1918) velocipedes, careening around the corner. Wobbling, but completely in control of the situation, Pat West charged down University avenue.
Bradford, a student of SC, is originally from Austria. He has written a concerto of four movements which will soon be played by Vladamir Horowitz, noted pianist, and accompanied by the New York Philharmonic orchestra.
The aforementioned velocipede is owned by Eugene Johnson, Theta Chi, and was brought here from Long Beach. One of the Theta Chi pledges was forced to ride the vehicle which was then taken over bv West.

May, 1940, the people of Holland still thought that “it can’t happen to us,” but they knew that it had happened when Hitler sent his personal representative to Holland to “make Nazis of the Dutch.”
“Not so dumb, the people realized that this could well mean the end of their freedom,” said Van Berkel. “While the Germans were saying that they had come to protect us from the Jews, the Socialists, the Communists, and the British, they were arresting the members of our government, our political leaders, and our best men and women.”
The Dutch were rationed four macj magician’s weeks after the occupation when the Germans confiscated all food stores, but the Dutch stole Nazi ration books to feed the underground. They also stole weapons and killed Germans. The Dutch also “took care of” Dutch traitors.
When the Nazis closed all universities and ordered all students to report as slave laborers in Germany. only 50 per cent of them obeyed, and the other half went into the underground forces

Climax of the evening will be a stage show. Two Gay 90s melodramas will be interspersed with a act, topped by a chorus girl routine.
There will be booths such as “For Men Only,” “For Women Only,” “Tunnel of Love,” “Kissing Booth,” “Fish Fond,” “Fortune Teller’s tent,” and the usual galleries.
During the evening Trojans will enjoy dancing ’to request numbers, and candied apples will be sold with cokes and popcorn.

Deadline slated for annual pix
“Friday is definitely the absolute deadline for picture appointments for this year's El Rodeo.” warned Clarice Thurman, editor, “and there will be no extensions or exceptions made for anyone.”
This is a final reminder for those who have not as yet had their picture reproductions made. Another definite reminder is that there will be no reappointments or retakes.
Uniformity of dress is stressed for the $1.50 pictures which cover both the cost of proofs and completed picture. Women are asked to wear for the poses white blouses, civilian men dark suits, and trainees their full dress uniforms.
Miss Thurman also urged that when a student makes an appointment he be sure and keep it.
